Letter: We must work together to end racism

Unfortunately in a country that was formed with "all men are created equal," and "freedom for all," we had slavery and there are small pockets of racism from all sides!

Racism has been a part of human history since we walked out of the garden.

As a kid, if there was an all-white school, blacks cried racism. Now there are black colleges, and I say that's racist! Why a black Miss U.S.A.? That's racist! All black channel, that's racist! Black movie awards, that's racist. A person should he noted for what they achieved, not their color!

I will never call any person born on American soil an African American! I find that to be an insult to all who worked to end segregation and bring Americans together as one people!

Whites did die, were arrested, beat up for standing against segregation, hate, and wrongful arrests of blacks. We did not chose our color!

Color issues will plague us, but others cling to it. The rest of us who just want to live in peace with all need speak out and unite as Americans. That takes away the power of a hate group's words.
